Chapter 55
“You sure are a bold one.” He said gripping me firmly when my hands let loose of him. I was shaking out of fear now as tears pooled my eyes. He tugged me closer and patted my hair menacingly.
“Please….” I cried out softy. I knew I was doomed and Angel’s words rang in my head. ‘I’d rather kill you than let you go.” More tears pooled and streamed down my face. Camilo had tried to warn me but I didn’t let her.
“Come on, let’s get you back to your master.” He said and began dragging me towards Angel whose jaw was clenched. I could see the veins popping on his temple which wouldn’t have been visible if he weren’t so furious now.
My tears flowed at will, I didn’t know what he would do to me now that I tried escaping but I was scared to my bones to find out. The Cop threw me over and I landed before Angel’s feet. With my quivering body I looked up to catch Angel glaring at me. My blood went cold at his villain gaze. He looked away to face the Cop.
“I’m glad you dropped by Javier. You will get your cut as promised.” He said extending a handshake to the Cop.
“I’ll leave you to deal with your whore.” He said and soon I heard their vehicles retreating till they were out of the compound.
I was sobbing uncontrollably now. I sighted Camilo and Florentine by the entrance and by all indications they looked helpless and genuinely sad for me. I saw a tear drop down Camilo’s face as she watched me.
I felt Angel squatting down to my level and I impulsively pulled away.
“Angel… please. I-I swear I would never try to run again.” I said desperately amidst my tears but instead Angel was calm. His finger reached for my cheek and a cold chill ran down my spine. I moved away and parted my lips to say something.
“P-please….”
“Shh….” He hushed me caressing my cheek. His hand trailed down till it gripped my chin making me to face him. Warm tears kept streaming down and my heart clenched in pain. I was hoping for our connection as step siblings to be of help but even Angel had made it clear that he didn’t care about that.
“I saved your life Thea.” His voice came out deep and low. A glint of dissapointment on his face. “And this is how you choose to repay me. Selling me out to the Cops.” He chuckled darkly and his expression turned deadly. I knew there was no escaping from his wrath. He trailed his hand down my shoulder brushing it lightly and I shivered.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
His touch that would have gotten a moan out of me was now a terror to me. My lips were pressed tightly against each other but I could still feel the salty taste of my tears on my tongue.
“Holf!” Angel called standing to his feet.
“Yes boss.” He answered standing beside him.
” Release the dogs.”
My heart sank at his words and I felt my eyes almost popping out of its socket. What dogs? The same one knight fed some men to?
“No, no, no, no. Angel No! You can’t do this to me.” I said grabbing his leg but he flung me away pulling his leg from my grip. I moved to Holf who was about leaving to follow the order and tried begging him but he tore my hand off his pants.
I was going insane not knowing what to do. I shuffled back thinking of where to run to. Angel suddenly yanked me off the ground and caged me in his arms making me watch the vase field before us.
“You wanted to run right? I’ll give you exactly what you asked for. Now you are going to be running for your life.” He said choking me further with his arms on my neck.
Soon Holf came out with two beastly creatures that I doubted were dogs. How could dogs look like this? There were too huge to be called dogs. No, they were beast or some kind of monsters I never knew existed. I could feel air being sucked out of my lung and my body drained of blood at the sight. Angel let out a villain laugh behind me then he pushed me toward the field.
“On the count of ten I’ll be releasing the dogs after you. Run as far as you can love.” He said and without wasting any time I took to my heels ignoring the aggressive barkings of the dogs. I ran like a crazy person and soon I heard the whistle blow. The two monsters were unleashed and they were coming after me.
“Help! Mom! Please somebody help!” I cried out running in no specific direction. The barking of the dogs increased meaning they were near but I kept on my heels until they sorrounded me. I fell on my butt darting my eyes rsndomly. They were barking and walking about me like I was some prey they were getting ready to feast on.
My body shook violently from fear and I saw them retract their steps slowly only for them to run right back at me. I raised my hands above my head looking away not wanting to see my death before me and just when I thought they would pounce on me I felt something huge jump over me.
I pulled my hands down slowly and saw the dogs standing a distance away from me then the sound of an engine stole my attention.
Angel was in an open car coming towards me. For a moment I thought he was going to crash into me but then he stopped and stepped out of the car with a gun in his hand. He began walking towards me till his figure towered above me.
He pointed the gun at me and my life flashed before my eyes.
“Angel no!”
